Both projects were debated and approved in a second vote. The entry of these foreign units would be occurring at the beginning of November.
The incoming military personnel come from two countries, in the first case, the Brazilian Navy, which plans to carry out a official visit to the port of Callao from November 8 to 10 aboard the Brasil Training Ship (U-27), so his entry is scheduled for the period between 6 and 13 of that month.

These visits will occur less than a month from serious data breach Peruvian Armed Forcesin which confidential intelligence plans were disseminated, for which the Army has not yet taken action.
Bazán justified these two resolutions by indicating that the visit of these two military delegations “would increase professional ties in activities related to the promotion of measures of mutual trust with neighboring countries”, since “The benefits are highly favorable to the interests of the Peruvian Navy and the Peruvian State.”
